DC Universe Classics Paint Masters up for Charity Auction

Before we get all caught up in Comic-Con madness, here’s an opportunity to land some one-of-a-kind collectibles from the Four Horsemen and Mattel. Six paint masters from the line are up for grabs in a set of auctions to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

The auctions kick off tomorrow evening, right smack in the middle of Preview Night. It’s your chance to have your collection hobby do some good for others. Bid them up!

DCUC Paint Masters up for Auction!

Mattel and Warner Bros. have teamed up with the Make-A-Wish foundation to offer a selection of DC Universe Classics paint master prototypes to the public. These prototypes will be up for auction from Wednesday, July 17th at 6pm PST until Saturday, July 27th at 5:59pm PST. The money earned from these auctions will go to Make-A-Wish, which grants wishes to children diagnosed with live-threatening medical conditions. This is a great opportunity to support a worthy cause, and also to own a unique collector’s item that has never been offered for sale to the general public.

The prototypes for sale include: Azrael Batman, Batman, Hawkman, Kilowog, Steel and Clone Superboy. Follow the link below to visit the auctions and make a difference in the life of a child with a severe illness.

I hope you’re on board too!

Four Horsemen Gothitropolis Ravens to be Kickstarted this Friday, July 12

I’ve been waiting for the Four Horsemen Gothitropolis Ravens to hit Kickstarter for a while (and even longer since they were first revealed), so it’s great to see that the Kickstarter campaign is launching this Friday.

No idea if this will be done for this one, but many Kickstarter campaigns offer “early bird” (how appropriate) specials for a limited number of backers that kickstart a project early on – so if you’re interested, you should really hit the Kickstarter site and find the project when it opens up at midnight Friday.

Icon Heroes Announces ThunderCats and Masters of the Universe Exclusives for San Diego Comic-Con

Icon Heroes has revealed its exclusives for San Diego Comic-Con. I’m glad to see the ThunderCats Minimates continue. For more information on the He-Man bust, check out our conversation with Joe Amaro, who collaborated with the Four Horsemen on that piece. And remember, those Power Swords are compatible with the larger figures in the Masters of the Universe Classics line, like Tytus and Megator.

All three exclusives will be available at the Action Figure Xpress Booth #3345.

ThunderCats Minimates Set of 5 ($22)

As his homeworld crumbled around him, young Prince Lion-O fled Thundera with the noble Jaga. Jaga would sacrifice himself to ensure his ward reached the safety of Third Earth, but little did he know the dangers the boy would face, most notably his old foe Grune the Destroyer and a new threat, Mumm-Ra the Ever-Living. Includes a Ma-Mutt PVC Minimate! Limited edition of 3,000.

Masters of the Universe He-Man with Battle Axe and Shield Mini Bust Paperweight ($60)

Keep your papers safe from Eternian winds with the Icon Heroes San Diego Comic Con Exclusive Masters of the Universe He-Man Mini Bust Paperweight! Based on the 1980’s Filmation television series, He-Man wields his battle axe and shield atop a Castle Grayskull tower base defying evil. Designed and sculpted by Joe Amaro and the Four Horsemen, this complete piece comes with sheath and Master of the Universe logo. Cast in high quality polystone, the He-Man Mini Bust Paperweight stands approximately 10 inches tall from the bottom of the base to the tip of the axe. This makes a great addition to any desktop or Masters of the Universe collection. Limited edition of 500 (ONLY 100 AVAILABLE AT SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON).

Masters of the Universe Faker Power Sword Letter Opener ($20)

Created by Skeletor, He-man’s robot twin sneaks into the power sword line up as an exclusive variant. This letter opener measures approximately 7 inches long and stores nicely in the Castle Grayskull business card holder (sold separately). Limited Edition of 600.
